Abstract
The presence of plants around us has many benefits, including reducing stress and creating positive energy in the work environment. But in the current worrying situation that has involved all people and organizations, it has become difficult to pay attention to the environment and the conditions of their maintenance and handling. On the other hand, maintaining plants and determining the optimal conditions for their maintenance requires a lot of time, money and knowledge. The Internet of Things creates a digital identity for all objects and collects information with its sensors and shares this information with appropriate objects and people at any time and place so that necessary actions can be taken; Therefore, the use of Internet of Things in the green library can solve the problem of people's time and knowledge in maintaining and creating a green and fresh environment and be effective in its potential and actual mission. To identify the applications of Internet of Things for the growth and maintenance of plants in the green library. In this research, documentary and library methods were used to collect and complete information. In the research, the use of Internet of Things in the green library has been discussed to determine the various components of plants, and at the end, the advantages and challenges of the implementation of the Internet of Things in the green library have been pointed out. The Internet of Things actually provides the best conditions for plants, the least damage to the environment while causing the least damage to library resources and users, but still, its implementation has challenges such as cost, lack of sufficient knowledge, interference, reliability, security and privacy, and insufficient network coverage and low internet speed.
